Summary
The Enterprise returns to Earth and is ordered to be
decommissioned. Kirk discovers through Sarek that Spock's soul has been
deposited in Dr McCoy's mind as part of an ancient Vulcan custom. This
rite dictates that Spock's body and soul must be taken to Vulcan for their
final resting place. Kirk requests to take the Enterprise to Genesis to
retrieve Spock's body. When he is refused, he along with Scott, Sulu, Chekov
and McCoy steal the Enterprise and head for Genesis. Meanwhile David Marcus
and Saavic who are part of a team studying the Genesis planet, discover
Spock has been regenerated and is alive in a child's body. This body is
however rapidly aging. Before they can return to their ship it is destroyed
by a Klingon who wants the Genesis device for a weapon. The Klingons then
capture them and use them as hostages when the Enterprise arrives. After
a brief firefight the Klingons kill David forcing Kirk to abandon and destroy
the Enterprise in the pretence of surrender. This kills most of the Klingons
when their boarding party is trapped on the self-destructing Enterprise.
On the Genesis planet Kirk frees the hostages and after a struggle kills
the Klingon captain. He then tricks the remaining Klingon into beaming
him onto the Klingon ship which he then commandeers. They then flee the
Genesis planet which is rapidly self-destructing, and head for Vulcan where
Spock's body (now at it's proper age) is reunited with it's soul through
another Vulcan ritual.
